Spending: about $6,906,000 (But it's complicated. Here's why.)

It can be tricky to figure out how much an organization spent on a particular lobbying engagement. The law only requires lobbyists to report the amount they were paid for federal lobbying each quarter rounded to the nearest $10,000—and if it's less than $3,000 in a given quarter (or less than $13,000 for organizations with in-house lobbyists), they don't have to disclose it at all. Plus, some organizations include spending that doesn’t belong in the report—for instance, money spent lobbying state governments or other legal work.

Agencies lobbied since 2008: U.S. Senate, House of Representatives, Justice - Dept of (DOJ), Office of Juvenile Justice & Delinquency Prevention, Substance Abuse & Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), Health & Human Services - Dept of (HHS), Education - Dept of, Indian Health Service, Labor - Dept of (DOL), Interior - Dept of (DOI), Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), Centers For Disease Control & Prevention (CDC), White House Office, Administration for Children & Families (ACF), Agriculture - Dept of (USDA), Treasury - Dept of, Defense - Dept of (DOD), Corporation for Natl & Community Service, Housing & Urban Development - Dept of (HUD), Air Force - Dept of, Army - Dept of (Other), Navy - Dept of, Office of Justice Program, U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), U.S. Marines, Army - Dept of (Other), Defense - Dept of (DOD), Justice - Dept of (DOJ), Office of Juvenile Justice & Deliquency Prevention, Army - Dept of (Other) , Army - Dept of (Corps of Engineers), U.S. Marines,, Housing & Urban Development - Dept of (HUD),
